Bayern Munich manager unhappy with officiating in Champions League semi-final
Bayern Munich were eliminated from the UEFA Champions League after losing their two-legged tie against PSG. However, the Bavarians’ head coach was left deeply dissatisfied.
Details: According to the Belgian manager himself, he does not understand why Nuno Mendes was not sent off. Vincent Kompany believes the referee should have shown the defender a red card but ultimately decided against it.
Quote: “Why is that not a red card? I don’t understand. Why did we not get a penalty in Paris, and then receive nothing here either? I understand the rules, but the hand was above the head. It felt like there was a hand that tilted things the wrong way for us,” Kompany stated.
French giants PSG managed to protect their aggregate advantage against Bayern Munich. After a thrilling 5–4 victory in the first leg, the return match at the Allianz Arena was played in a more cautious manner and ended in a 1–1 draw.
Reminder: During the UEFA Champions League semi-final between Bayern and PSG, a controversial incident unfolded in the first half of the match.
